Why repair rather than replace?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why Arlecdon clients choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
